Shimmer-E will be at the following events:
Sunwest Equine's cherity show for the Youth Emergency Shelter on May 30, 2010
(The turnout was fantastic but the weather was less than desirable. Kudos to those troopers who made it through to the bitterly cold end.)
The 2010 Horse Showcase at Fultonvale on May 31, 2010
(Again, the weather was less than desirable. The Showcase was cancelled this year. See you there next year!)
The Horse Showcase has been rescheduled for Sunday September 19!
Amanda will be in Whitecourt June 13, 2010 to teach a clinic. Contact info@aandkranch.com to join in.
We had a great time again in Whitecourt, looking forward to doing it again next year!
Killerney Schooling Dressage Show July 4, 2010
Sam saw a successful return to the dressage ring competing in 3rd level dressage! After finding out that the EC tests couldn't be used and doing a crash test through the CADORA 3rd level test A, Sam and Amanda came out with a 55.83%. Not bad for the horse's 4th ever dressage test, first 3rd level test! The only direction from here is UP!!!
Shimmer-E Equestrian is hosting a summer riding camp Augst 6, 7 and 8, 2010.
What a fantastic weekend. The girls worked really hard and made some really good progress both in dressage with Amanda and in jumping with Craig. We saw one rider do her first posting trot, her first jump (8 whole inches!) and her first canter! We saw softening and forward-moving horses, highest jumps, and lots and lots of smiles. We will definitely do this again next year. Thanks to all who came out!
Canadian National and Alberta Provincial Pinto Combined 4-in-1 Show.
It was my first trip out with Blue By You owned by Deb Adolphson of Valley View, AB. He won his first class, Maiden English Pleasure and took top placings in his Novice Horse English Pleasure class. They were classes of 17+ horses, tough classes! He tried hard and did his best to keep himself together. I was very pleased with him so I stopped with the two classes. It was a fantastic show, good time to catch up with old friends and made lots of new ones. The girls from Sweet Talk Stables across from us were lots of fun too. Hope to see you again soon!
